From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> jit_repipe_unwinding_info() copies unwinding_size and eh_frame_hdr_size from the jitdump record into jd-> fields without checking them against the actual payload size. Downstream, jit_add_eh_frame_info() in genelf.c computes unwinding_table_size = unwinding_size - eh_frame_hdr_size, which underflows when eh_frame_hdr_size > unwinding_size. The result is passed as d->d_size to libelf, causing an OOB heap read into the output ELF file. Validate that unwinding_size fits within the record payload and that eh_frame_hdr_size does not exceed unwinding_size before allocating or storing the values, so a bogus record cannot force a large allocation that is then discarded. mapped_size is likewise taken from the record and was narrowed into an int for the mmap2 len computation in jit_repipe_code_load() and jit_repipe_code_move(); values above INT_MAX would turn negative, producing a wrong mmap2 length. Use uint64_t for usize so the value cannot truncate.
